Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

He really is that stupid.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

People are weird.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

The National Guard is not Batman.

Welcome to day five of every-bit-as-bad-as-you-thought-it-would-be.

Reality always gets a vote in the end.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

Usually wrong but never in doubt

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

“They all knew.”

Today, pictures from valued commenter AM in NC.

These were photos taken at the Raleigh, NC Women’s March on Saturday. It was held this weekend, rather than last, so as not to step on MKL weekend events.

I’m with the Moms Defeat MAGA sign. “WTF GOP?! is on the other side of the sign.

Some of my favorites

Another favorite . . .

If I didn’t have teenagers I would not have understood this one. But it’s a fave!

 

Thank you so much AM in NC, do send us more when you can.

 

Travel safely everybody, and do share some stories in the comments, even if you’re joining the conversation late. Many folks confide that they go back and read old threads, one reason these are available on the Quick Links menu.

    @OzarkHillbilly: Apparently its origin is in street basketball culture and it’s said when launching a shot. That’s probably bowdlerized because he thinks I can’t take the troot. I suggested perhaps fuck the patriarchy and he allowed as how that meaning would suffice.
